FOUL AsSA ssINATION.
A Worthy Young La<eyer Murdered
ON COuntry Road.

ST.. JosRPH, Mo-, June 11.-Joseph
Payne, a prominent young farmer liv-
ing near Wallace, twelve miles south
of here, twenty-eight years If age, was
foully murdered Thursday night, and
his dead body was found yesterday
morniE e in front of the residence of
John Murphy, a neighbor. During
the past Elk years no less than thirteen
murders have been committed in
Wallace township, and but one Grim
inal has been brought to justice. The
assassination of young Payne Thurs
day night WAS undoubtedly premedi-
tsted. He started from his home
about two miles from Wallace, at 7
O'Clock to attend a concert at that vii
lsge. He was found at o'clock lying
in the middle OF the road with pistol
wound in the back. The bal hsd en-
tered the left lung, and death wa, in
Simultaneous. The theory of the crime
Is that Payne bad some private diff
Guilty and his death was the result Of
this grudge.

CHARLESTON, MISS, June 11.-An

four cadets were graduated from the

arrived last evening. The battalion

as he ap aeared on the plain, and Ga
corted him to Gen. Merritt's residence,
the right wing marching in front aud
the left wing behind his carriage,
while the band played sad the bat.
terry belched forth the regulation
salute, Hall an hour later, at 6
o'clock, he reviewed the battalion.
The members of the graduating class
were very busy this morning settling
their accounts with the treasurer,
packing their trunks aud exchanging
farewell greetings. At 10 O'Clock the
long roll call brought them in ranks,
and they marched to the appointed
place under the canopy. On the plat
form were Gems. Sheridan, Sherman,
Merritt and the acsdemical and mill.

these young fellows looked, as though
each OF their young heads contained
all the military knowledge in the
world. "What glorious confidence,
what magnificent innocence" he ex-
claimed. The roar of laughter that
greeted this made the old General [ r..
get all about his written address and
be struck out into one OF his charac-
teristic speeches., which was frequently
punctusted by hearty laughter and
applause by the audience.
Gen. Sheridan was the last speaker.
He welcomed the graduates into the
ranks of the army. The general re.
viewed his own military career and at
tributed his advancement to industry
and to the fact that he was good to his
men, thereby securing their IL fluence
for his advancement. He then hand
ed the cadets their diplomas. Francis
Skunk, Of Pennsylvanis, was the first
to step f1rward; hut the applause that
greeted him, as the highest smsn Ia
the class. was as nothing compared
with the thundsrous hand clapping

winner OF thirty.second place in the
class.

were found yesterday and sent home.

originally $50 strong.

TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION.
A SENSATION DEVELOPED DUR
ING THE SECRET SESSION.
Mr. PascOe's Accounts Found 60 be
Very Much Muddled and He

yesterday afternoon, the particulars OF

the doors we're opened and the report
ers a1mittei they found the conven.
ton bsllotlng for asecre ary-treasurer.
This gave rise TO the query, what b I'D
become OF Mr.. Psscoeli Though every
delegate was sworn TO secrecy there
was 80 much ostentstious mystery
that curiosity was challenged, and
every holder of the secret was over
burdened With 1t. 1t was learned last
night that Mr.. Pascal had rendered his
resignation, but the lie Ison for this
action was kept a close eecret. This
morning, however, it was learned that
sshortsge had been discovered in Mr..
Pest o e's accounts.
The Finance Committee had been
at work on the books for some time,
and ss soon as they were convinced Of
the shortage they reported to the con-
vention. What transpired in the BE-
cret session is known only to the
delegates themselves, but Mr.. Pascole
had severed his come ction with the
executive department of the union
when the doors were reopened. One
delegate said this morni x that M.
Pascole had evinced no desire TO make
an exclamation Of the middle. al
though given an opportunity to do so.
Another said there was no shortage,
only q general mix up of the accounts
occasioned by an incompetent man
trying to keep a Get Of books without
knowing ytbing about bookkeeping
The report he made was very incom
plete.
The Childs. Drexel fund is said to be
all right.
The Finance Committee this morn
ing state d that they had worked all
night on the accounts, but they were
in as great a muddIe as ever, and il
will require two or three days Ia
strafghten them out. Mr.. Psscole
banded between $7 and $4,000
during the year, and was under bono
Of $500. He will leave for home to
day.
The convention again went into 90
cret session this morning.
When the doors were opened the
erort of the Committee on Suhordin.
ate Unions was taken up. 1t was de-
cided that no foreman shall have q
